“lmao I contradict myself daily and take pot shots at anyone that I don’t feel like agreeing with on any given day and I have been doing this for literally years but everyone else is 10 and the problem” hehe

What if he whiffs on blocks! What if the pocket collapses with him in there, what if the back gets stuffed! Of course how would we tell the difference because that **** is already happening. Guaranteed though that if Eli was in at centre he would be able to now and then move a ***** out of the way and help a play happen. Best we hope for with kolankowski is that he doesn't get flat out embarrassed. And if it is worse then we stop wasting time on 2 players who shouldn't be there. What I actually think it is, because they so regularly use 6 OL Eli isn't seen as a real option at centee because he's good as the extra OL whereas Kolankowski is useless at everything except snapping the ball.

I’d go Bailey on for Hallett (see what he can do on teams at least, maybe some reps at end) Lawson on for Thomas Woods on for either Ayers or J. Jones (Ideally Wilson out for a game and give Jones that spot but I know they won’t take Wilson out for anything other than injury)

Give him a try... He can't be worse? Of course, he can.

Mostly through injury or departure though... kolankowski was purely an injury fill in and he had never once been in danger of being pulled out. Neufeld can be injured all training camp and never feel pressure to lose his spot...

He would have to try very hard for that to happen. Kolankowski's blocking technique consists of trying to get in the way of someone other than one of his guards.

Remind yourself who the head coach is. Then it will all make sense.

Yeah I’m not sure why they don’t use Jonathan Jones more, he can play wil or MLB as well as either of the guys currently taking the most reps there. Most likely the seniority/loyalty thing which we’ve all discussed. If he’s only on a 1-year deal I don’t see how he stays here in 26, for the good of his own career. I also would like to see what Connor Shay could do with a few reps a game at least. For a guy that highly touted to go half the year with zero defensive snaps is so strange.

lol at thinking a guy who has been here since 2019 is any sort of solution. I mean the hills some of you chose to die on are pretty insane. It’s always something tho. lol at also pretending anyone actually watches the OL play. Some of you I think need to accept that you might not know as much as you think you do.

I bet Wallace...Eli...Even Schmeck would do better.....Kolo has started to have more and more bad snaps...and he is utterly useless after initial engagement...he usually misses his block....loses the block...or gets roller skated into the QB's lap....and in second level....yikes.....I dunno how we can really fix that this yr....But something needs to be tried if for anything just to see.....but we wont Nobody would have thought Speller would look like an all-star but he got thrust into action and was lights out in a Cup run...If you aint trying to get better...what the fcukk you doing?

I agree. He looked promising before he stepped away from football after 2019 but he has clearly not been the same player since.

Eli's been around since 2019 and hasn't been promoted to starter yet. If you're basing your opinion on how he played way back in 2017 against college opposition, then you're out to lunch on your assessment of his current value.

can't earn it if not given the shot....Practice isnt a place to earn anything really Kolo didnt earn it...was given to him by default when Couture went down and we had nobody else ....has he earned keeping it.?..hell to the no....but there he is...game in and game out

Yes, because we have never let young OL get into our starting lineup. I mean c'mon...you guys are laying it on a bit thick. We have swapped out a ton of guys on our OL over the years.

As opposed to his play calling? Just kidding 😁

I appreciated Younger's answer when he was asked why they let both Bighill and Alexander go at the same time, given how important leadership and communication are. "The other side of that is the physical toll that the game takes. Either way, you have a challenge. Whether the challenge is communication or physical limitations - you choose your challenge."

Osh ain't taking Thomas off the roster unless he was dead and even then it's 50/50

Might be back for Labour Day

Hey, I got an "eye roll" from Noeller! Does that mean I've been initiated?
